The most natural trait of almost all the living cerature is to take care of thier children, majorily done by the mother of most species. Clicked this picture of a mother sparrow, taking hours to feed her baby grain by grain.

A Week of Miracles

The last week gone by, can be put down in history as the week of Miracales, or more appropiately the week of Mass Hysteria. On Friday evening suddenly the people of Mumbai realized that the sea water near the Mahim Creak has got sweet, resulting into people beliving it as some kinda miracle created by the Saint of the Mosque nearby. Believing the Sweet water in the Sea to be Holy water sent to them by the almighty to drink and be cured of all there diseases and problems, people flocked at the sea beach to drink and carry the sea water in bottles and containers.

On Saturday news came up of a young girl fasting in a village near Agra for 6 days to appease God and have rains in the area. Villagers got hysterical and started praying the little girl as the avtaar of a Godess herself.

And the week closed with a bang on sunday night with almost all kind of hindu God and Godess drinking milk in spoon from the devotess all over India. The News Broke out in Barely and spread like wild fire all over India.

Looking at these phenomenon, people are saying it is god's Miracle, its something beyond the explanation of science. But this whole week was a classic example of Mass Hysteria. Our mind is the most powerful force in the world. What we call God is actually our mind. Nobody is ready to look upto the fact that due to very heavy rain falls, the huge amount of sea water had been collected in the creak, niether anybody looked at the fact that the girl fasting was at the brink of her life, and still there has been no rains, Nor anybody was ready to notice all the milk they are feeding to the God's idols is bieng collected and wasted on the floor.

The masses are always in need of a Miracle, and when they can find anything remotely like a Miracle they just hang on to it dearly. Just wished that the people drinking all that polluted seawater dont fall prey to some epidemic. The people feeding (wasting) litres of milk to Gods, dont wanna give even a single litre to orphans or needy.

We love to belive on someone else, but dont wanna believe in ourself... The only people benefitting from these mircales are the priests and the News Channel... Miracle - Bileve it or Not

Ligers


Through out my life i have been utterly fascinated by Lions & Tigers, but today I came to know about a high breed of these spices called as Ligers...
Long ago, outside the old city of Singapore, which was considered to be the city of Lions, there was reported to be giant brown beasts. This was before the Asiatic lion was reduced to such low numbers that their are now less than 200 left in the Gir forest. This huge animal might just be an explanation for this myth, for he is neither a lion nor a tiger, but he is about the size of both of them combined. The liger is the world's largest big cat. An average male liger weighs over 900 pounds and standing almost 12 feet tall.
The reason that they are called a liger is because the father was a lion and the mother was a tiger. If the situation was reversed and the mother was a lion and the father was a tiger, he would be called a tigon, and would be a dwarf instead of a giant. A fully grown tigon is usually less that 350lbs. Ligers are not sterile, and they can reproduce. If a liger were to reproduce with a tiger, it would be called a titi, and if it were to reproduce with a lion, it would be call a lili.
Liger is the accidental result of two enormous big cats living close together at the Institute of Greatly Endangered and Rare Species, in Miami, Florida, and already dwarfs both his parents. "Ligers are not something we planned on having," said institute owner Dr Bhagavan Antle. "We have lions and tigers living together in large enclosures and at first we had no idea how well one of the lion boys was getting along with a tiger girl, then lo and behold we had a liger."

He Who Knows...

This poem i read it in my 4th grade, but ever since that it has kinda stick into my mind... so kinda thought will post it to spread it around.... in our english text book too the name of the author was missing and i learnt the meaning of word 'anonymous' through this poem....
He Who Knows - Anonymous
He Who Knows Not, And Knows Not, That He Knows Not,
Is A Fool - Ignore Him.
He Who Knows Not, And Knows That, He Knows Not,
Is Igonrant - Teach Him.
He Who Knows, But Knows Not, That He Knows,
Is Asleep - Awake Him,
He Who Knows, And Knows That, He Knows,
Is Wise - Follow Him.
